I woke up this morning and saw that LinkedIn finally aded the new inbox to my account. I first saw the inbox about 2 months ago and wondered when it would be released to more people. Most of my client’s still have the old inbox, so if you have not been upgraded be patient. It should roll out over the next couple of months.
Here is a video of the new Inbox.

Do you have the new inbox? What do you think about the addition of a delete button and the removal of the “I Don’t Know” button?

A 'delete' option, what a concept! That was the first thing I thought of when I saw your post title.
Thanks Sean!
Hi Sean,
The “I Don't Know” option is still there. I wish it was gone totally, but if you receive an invite and click on ignore, LinkedIn archives the message for you then gives you more “optional” buttons to select I Don't Know or Report as Spam. I just found that out today.

Thanks Marleen for the heads up. I wish it were gone as well.
I can’t imagine the space being wasted on storing useless or outdated messages. Thanks for the comment.

Got it too! much better visibility and indeed, i finally will be able to clean up the inbox properly and not just archive content.

One step forward on the inbox and two steps backward on the changes to groups. A case study of why you should involve your users to some degree when making improvements to the site (for the user I hope and not just to say look how cool we are).
